2 Best Restaurants in Šibenik, Central Dalmatia

A carefully restored 14th-century palazzo opposite the historic Cathedral of St. James is home to this magnificent award-winning restaurant. The seasonal six-course prix-fixe tasting menu (there is no à la carte option) features traditional Dalmatian cuisine that is innovatively prepared and beautifully presented, with exquisite flavor being the restaurant's guiding principle. Service is impeccable, the atmosphere unique, and the wine list is a thorough presentation of local and international labels. Guests can also request a unique on-sea dining experience with a personal chef aboard the Pelegrini boat.

This excellent spot gives traditional Dalmatian meals a modern and creative twist atypical for a konoba in Dalmatia. Nostalgija (meaning "nostalgia") also provides a drink menu with local wines and craft beer, as well as cocktails based on Croatian classics such as rakija. Knowledgeable hospitable staff create a homey atmosphere for guests who, weather permitting, can dine alfresco on the cobblestone terrace flanked by Mediterranean plants.
